Lignocellulose Degradation by Termites
(Springer, 2018)
Termites (Insecta: Isoptera) are imperative terrestrial decomposers as they feed on lignocellulosic plant materials such as decaying wood, grass, animal dung or plant litter at various stages of humification. They are ...
Digestive morphology and enzyme activity in the Andean toad Bufo spinulosus: Hard-wired or flexible physiology?
(Elsevier Inc., 2005)
Gut plasticity is a trait with implications on animal performance. However, and despite their importance as study models in physiology, research on gut flexibility in amphibians is scarce. In the present work, we analyse ...
Chitinolytic activities in the gut of Aedes aegypti (Diptera : Culicidae) larvae and their role in digestion of chitin-rich structures
(Elsevier B.V., 2003-11-01)
Mosquito larvae are believed to be capable of digesting chitin, an insoluble polysaccharide of N-acetylglucosamine, for their nutritional benefit. Studies based on physiological and biochemical assays were conducted in ...
